Now as is well known, Tear has major problems with black themes such as the wonderful LCARS themes: Input fields using native GTK+ appearance end up having black type on black background, and are as such unusable.

Now, one approach to solving this is to use user CSS to restyle <input> and other tags to be readable again, but that means losing the integration factor. At least, unless putting in a little more effort.

Is anyone interested in creating a user stylesheet that essentially recreates the LCARS themes' GTK+ widgets in Tear on a CSS basis (just without the font color problem)? Using attributes like --webkit-border-radius and the recently-added ability to style scrollbars in a pretty sophisticated manner should make this possible.

Wish I had the same experience. Seems slightly faster -- if any -- than the previous version and is still much slower than microb. Ideas?

Latest versions for libwebkit and Tear? Also the Minimalistic theme of this forum will be severely slower if -webkit-border-radius is not disabled in the user styleseet.

It wasn't well known to me.

Please file a bug.

I would advise against using border-radius, it is very slow.

libwebkit = 41137-5
tear = 0.3-6
-webkit-border-radius = disabled

Time to uninstall/re-install?

Hmm, do any bookmarklets work? I tried using the one from Evernote by copying and pasting it into the url box (after highlighting some text) and it just gets stuck trying to load. In Microb this will start the Evernote clipping dialog and add it to my Evernote account

Could you please provide more information? Like explaining what exactly is slower and how do you open it?

Yes, disable plugins till needed and beg Bundyo to implement a very simple stylesheet algorithm. Maybe a three-liner like the following:

if hostname.css exists use hostname.css
else if domain.css exists use domain.css
else use default.css

Then fall in love with your tablet all over again.
